On a personal note, I would like to express my gratitude to all NSBL members. We have built a basketball community that we can all be proud of. The overall good sportsmanship, genuine care and teamwork displayed by all, keeps me motivated for the coming years ahead.

Wishing you all a Happy Channukah, Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year ahead. Have a safe and enjoyable summer break. See you all at the courts.
